The causes of low female estrogen are as follows: 1. abnormalities in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, resulting in a decrease in ovarian secretion of estrogen and lower estrogen levels. 2. affected by diseases, such as diabetes, abnormal thyroid function and ovarian cysts, which can cause lower estrogen. 3. bad lifestyle habits, such as dieting and weight loss, staying up late, irregular lifestyle and excessive stress in life, which can cause lower estrogen levels. 4.
